  • Project Space Artist Residency

    Open Studio: July 13, 2023, 6-8pm

    Prompted by Caribbean cultural/political studies; familial and regional histories; folklore and memory, Samantha Box constructs restless photographs using her body and hair; Caribbean fruits and vegetables; heirloom textiles and jewelry; reedy seedlings; and archival photographs and paintings. These images are autoethnographic, articulating hybrid Jamaican/Trinidadian diaspora experience, from her embodied perspective.


     

    This program is supported in part by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the New York State Legislature; the National Endowment for the Arts; the Max and Marian Farash Foundation; and Joy of Giving Something.
